The ??? Trading Estate Railway

Just unearthed a proposed O gauge micro-layout which I designed awhile ago to complement my O-16.5 layout 'The Basin'. Initial track plan is one for around 4ft - 5ft in length. This could be built as a BR goods warehouse that is suposed to be a small corner of a bigger goods facility or alternatively (and more likely) as part of a private line similar to the one that existed until the 1960's on the Slough Trading Estate.

The arrival of the Ixion Hudswell Clarke 0-6-0T Contractors loco may kick start this project , there are also a number of other small industrial shunter kits available. Just hope the Ixion loco I have on the way is ok as it appers there have been some quality control problems.
